About this Event: Our Lakes Region Conservation Corps AmeriCorps members head out on the ice weekly to monitor water quality sites. Volunteers can join our AmeriCorps members to learn about water quality on Squam. This is a great option for volunteers that are interested in learning more about ice safety and water quality. Our Winter Water Quality Monitoring is volunteer-led program and a citizen science opportunity. Unlike our summer monitoring, which requires a boat, our winter program volunteers access the lake on foot or skis. This is a great opportunity to learn a new skill, trained by SLA's team of conservation professionals.
What to Bring: Appropriate winter clothing, food, water, microspikes and/or snowshoes (SLA can lend snowshoes to volunteers who do not have their own, and microspikes are available for purchase in the SLA store).
Event Details: Wednesday March 28th, 2018 from 1:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. at the Squam Lakes Association in Holderness, NH.
